YES!!

Its Friday afternoon. Im rendering sequences in After Effects and dancing in my cubicle to this band. They're called Yes Giantess and they opened for the Antlers last night at the NME showcase. I love them, because apparently they had a bunch of sound problems and were so stressed out that at the end of the show the lead singer goes "ok! that's done! let's get drunk!" I didn't hear any problems, but I danced a lot

ITS HIPSTER CHRISTMAS!

this week is CMJ in new york. this you can see a bunch of bands whose names all sound very similar!!!

Crystal Antlers or The Antlers
Aeroplane or Aeroplane Pageant
Girls or Little Girls or Little Teeth
At Sea or The Sea




Or you can go to the "We" Showcase featuring:

We Are Country Mice / We Are Enfant Terrible / We Are The World / We Are Wolves / We Have Band / We Should Be Dead / We The They

In all seriousness, I stumbled (literally stumbled) into two very good showcases. Sometimes it helps to have very, very low expectations. Check out some photos from my homegirl over at FreeWilliamsburg

I kind of love "These United States" from Kentucky. They sort of sound like a less-ghey version of Kings of Leon.
